Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of intelligent medical devices, and in particular, to a cloud big data-based system and method for insulin pump individualized configuration optimization.

BACKGROUND

[0002] Diabetes can cause numerous health issues. It is a disease with the characteristic of excessively high glucose content in the blood caused by insulin deficiency (type 1 diabetes) or insulin resistance or decreased insulin secretion rate (type 2 diabetes). All patients with type 1 diabetes and most patients with advanced type 2 diabetes require in vitro insulin injections to control blood glucose. Continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII), also known as insulin pump therapy, is designed to mimic physiological insulin secretion by continuous insulin infusion using an artificial intelligence-controlled insulin infusion device so as to control hyperglycemia. Insulin secretion can be divided into two parts according to its relationship with eating: (i) a continuous micro secretion having no connection with meals, that is, the basal insulin secretion; and (ii) the large amount of insulin secretion caused by the increased blood glucose after meals.

[0003] In order to mimic physiological insulin secretion, the insulin pump is controlled by artificial intelligence to perform the basic rate insulin injection via the adjustable pulse subcutaneous infusion mode. At the same time, the patients set the pre-meal large dose insulin and infusion mode according to the type and total amount of food to control the postprandial blood glucose. Clinical studies have confirmed that compared with multiple insulin injections, insulin pump can control the level of glycosylated hemoglobin more effectively and improve the quality of life of patients. Insulin pump has the following characteristics:

(1) It is more conducive to accurate and stable control of blood glucose, and reduces the fluctuation of blood glucose, which significantly reduces the risk of hypoglycemia and decreases the variation of insulin absorption.

(2) It improves the quality of life of patients. The use of insulin pump can improve the compliance of patients with treatment, reduce the pain and inconvenience caused by multiple injections of insulin, increase variations in one's diet and exercise, improve one's ability to self-manage their blood glucose levels as well as relieve the psychological burden of being a diabetic.

[0004] In contrast to injecting long-acting insulin and quick-acting insulin multiple times, the dosage and infusion rate of CSII insulin injection pump can be adjusted by patients at any time. Blood glucose and insulin levels in the human body are in a constant process of dynamic balance and are affected by many factors. How to determine the dose of insulin injection pump has been one of the research focuses of diabetes treatment. The infusion regimen recommended by the insulin pump therapy guidelines for China (2009) can be summarized as follows. First, the initial dose should be determined according to the type of diabetes, blood glucose level and body weight, and then be allocated to the basic infusion volume and pre-meal large dose. Then, the large dose should be supplemented and corrected according to the actual situation of the patient to comprehensively control the blood glucose.

[0005] When beginning an insulin injection pump regimen, the basic infusion volume, pre-meal large dose, supplementary large dose, correction large dose, and the time period of basic infusion rate are typically set according to specification or experience. Among these, the basic infusion volume refers to the amount of insulin needed to maintain the body's basal glucose metabolism, which can be adjusted by adjusting the basic infusion rate and corresponding time period. Basic infusion rate refers to the rate at which the insulin pump provides basal insulin, which is generally expressed in units of insulin dosage (U)/h. There are many setting modes, which can be set to one or more time periods according to the needs of blood glucose control. Most clinical trials are divided into 3-6 time periods. Compared with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients, type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) patients generally need more time periods. Among the T2DM patients, the time periods divided for the so-called fragile DM patients with large blood glucose fluctuations are often different from those for ordinary patients. The infusion volumes including the pre-meal large dose, supplementary large dose and correction large dose are set by the patients themselves according to the current carbohydrate intake and their own physiological parameters, such as insulin-carbohydrate metabolism ratio, insulin sensitivity and other factors.

[0006] It is clinically difficult to determine and timely adjust the optimal insulin infusion volume for patients due to the huge individual differences between patients and the constantly varying physiological parameters of patients with the onset and development of the disease. As a result, accurate and individualized blood glucose regulation is hardly achieved. At present, in the field of diabetes treatment, it is generally believed that in vitro open-loop system composed of real-time continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS) and CSII can help doctors to have an effective and dynamic clinical application experience to direct the regulation of the dosage of insulin pump for patients according to CGMS map, so as to achieve desired blood glucose control.

[0007] The real-time continuous glucose monitoring system, commonly known as CGMS, continuously records the glucose level in the intercellular fluid through an embedded subcutaneous glucose sensor, and then records the changes of blood glucose. Continuous blood glucose information obtained from CGMS can be used to map the blood glucose change, which facilitates clinical analysis and diagnosis and comprehensive identification of glucose fluctuation. It is, therefore, very important for blood glucose control and diabetes treatment.

[0008] Compared with the number of experienced and qualified physicians in China able to treat them, there is currently a disproportionately large number of diabetes patients. Therefore, it is necessary to use CGMS and CSII insulin pump system supported by artificial intelligence algorithm to assist doctors and patients to complete some simple medical decisions. For example, Chinese patent CN101254322A discloses a full-automatic intelligent infusion method and device for high-dose insulin based on model predictive control. With the support of real-time continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS), a strong tracking filter is used online to detect diet and infuse initial high-dose insulin, so its main focus is pre-meal large dose. However, considering the risk of hypoglycemia, the automatically calculated high-dose insulin dose is likely to be unsafe for users.

[0009] Another example is Chinese patent CN103418053B. An individualized insulin injection pump system is described that uses the data of real-time continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS) for modeling and simulation to assist in optimizing the basal infusion rate. The patented system, however, has no clinical significance for large dose insulin injection.

[0010] Another example, Chinese patent CN102500013A, discloses a portable intelligent insulin pump and its control model. This system dynamically monitors the user's blood glucose level to track the change of blood glucose and injects insulin to treat diabetes. This closed-loop infusion pump control model takes no account of the fact that patients may encounter dramatic blood glucose fluctuations after meals, and has a potential safety hazard. In addition, the inventions described above are each limited by the insufficient amount of reference data, and adopt the configuration regulation method at the current moment regardless of historical data. Therefore, the regulation results cannot reflect unique characteristics and courses of disease of individual patients themselves, and cannot be used to guide the medication after the removal of the insulin pump.

SUMMARY

[0011] The objective of the present invention is to provide a cloud big data-based system and method for individualized insulin pump configuration optimization, so as to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art.

[0012] The present invention adopts the following technical scheme.

[0013] A cloud big data-based system for insulin pump individualized configuration optimization includes an insulin pump, a real-time continuous glucose monitoring system, a smart phone, glucose monitoring application software installed in the smart phone and a cloud big data server.

[0014] The insulin pump includes a syringe pump body with a control module and a wireless transmission module, a replaceable drug container and a subcutaneous indwelling needle. The wireless transmission module of the insulin pump is wirelessly connected to the smart phone and a data transmission is performed between the wireless transmission module and the glucose monitoring application software.

[0015] The real-time continuous glucose monitoring system includes a replaceable implantable glucose sensor probe, a reusable signal collector and a signal transmitter. The signal transmitter of the real-time continuous glucose monitoring system is wirelessly connected to the smart phone and a data transmission is performed between the signal transmitter and the glucose monitoring application software.

[0016] The smart phone and the glucose monitoring application software installed in the smart phone have the function of data transmission with the real-time continuous glucose monitoring system through wireless transmission technique, and the function of data upload and download from the cloud big data server through smart phone data network or wireless network.

[0017] The cloud big data server has the functions of storing, updating, calculating and transmitting user's personal information and historical data.

[0018] The cloud big data server calculates the personalized parameters related to diabetes according to the stored user historical data, automatically corrects and calculates the parameter output data of insulin pump and implantable glucose sensor, and transfers it to the smart phone. The parameters include amount of carbohydrate converted by 1 unit of insulin CR, insulin sensitivity index IS, and insulin retention time TA, glucose release rate GR during fasting via metabolism, injection volume BOLUS of single high-dose injection, and basal infusion rate BASAL.

[0019] The insulin pump can download the latest user parameters from the cloud big data server through the smart phone, then calculate and recommend the high-dose insulin injection scheme according to the carbohydrate intake input by the user, and recommend the updated basal infusion rate scheme to the user according to the time segment of the user's basal infusion rate.

[0020] Further, the user's personal information and historical data stored in the cloud big data server include user's name, gender, age, contact number, serial number of insulin pump used, insulin pump infusion dose, infusion time and infusion rate records, blood glucose output value BG and corresponding data measurement time Ts, and carbohydrate intake, sleep and exercise recorded by individual patients. Further, in the cloud big data server, the definition and calculation of physiological parameters CR, IS, TA, GR and insulin infusion volume are as follows:

CR: the amount of carbohydrate converted by one unit of insulin

IS: insulin sensitivity index

TA: insulin retention time

GR: the rate of glucose released into the blood by the body through metabolism during fasting

BOLUS: injection volume of single high-dose injection

BASAL: basal infusion rate, usually counted in insulin units per hour (U/h)

[0021] According to the given CR, IS, TA, the calculation formula for the BOLUS is as follows:

[0022] Where, BGcurrent is the blood glucose value before high-dose injection read by CGMS; BGtarget is the target blood glucose value; BOLUSprev is the injection volume of the last high-dose injection; CARBS is the current carbohydrate intake input by the user; TI is the time between current high-dose injection and the midpoint of the previous high-dose injection process, min (TI, TA) is the smaller value of TI and TA, so that when TI is greater than or equal to TA, the residual amount of the previous high-dose injection

is 0.

[0023] According to the given GR, the BASAL during fasting for t is calculated as follows:

[0024] Where, BGstart is an average blood glucose after the fasting starts for a period of time read by CGMS, and TI is the time between current high-dose injection and the midpoint of the previous high-dose injection process.

[0025] Further, the cloud big data server can optimize the physiological parameters CR, IS, TA by collecting real-time data obtained by users using CGMS and insulin pump for high-dose injection. The specific steps are as follows:

Step A, establishing a regression equation

where, BGbefore is the blood glucose value before high-dose injection, which is equal to BGcurrent in the calculation formula; BGafter is the measured blood glucose value after a period of high-dose injection.

Step B, obtaining the following data near the time Tstart at which each high-dose injection is performed from the insulin pump and CGMS through the smart phone: Injection start time Tstart: insulin pump data

Injection end time Tend: insulin pump data
Injection volume BOLUS of high-dose injection at Tstart: insulin pump data
Blood glucose value BGbefore measured by implantable dynamic glucose sensor at Tstart
Blood glucose value BGafter measured by implantable dynamic glucose sensor after a period of Tend
Carbohydrate intake CARBS input by users near the Tstart
Forming a sample record packet for calculation
[Tstart_n Tend_n BOLUS_n CARBS_n BGbefore_n BGafter_n]
The data in the last three to six months are used for regression. The subscript number n of historical data variable is arranged in reverse order of Tstart, that is, the closer to the current historical data, the smaller the subscript number.

[0026] Step C, constructing a sample matrix:

where,

when TI_n > TAu, BOLUS'_n = BOLUS_n + BOLUS_n+1, TI'_n = TI_n,

when TI_n > TAu, BOLUS'_n = BOLUS_n , TI'_n = 0;
when TAl ≤ TI_n ≤ TAu, the sample was abandoned.

[0027] TAu is the upper limit allowed by TA, and TAI is the lower limit allowed by TA. Step D, if for each n, X_n,3=0, then:

[0028] Otherwise, the sample matrix remains unchanged.

[0029] Step E, solving the overdetermined equation G = XC,
the weighted least square method is used to solve: Ĉ = (X^TWX)^-1X^TWG.

[0030] Step F, eliminating the abnormal data: calculate the residual error: ε̂ = G - XĈ, eliminate the data items whose residual error is greater than the threshold, and then repeat the regression algorithm A-F until there are no data items whose residual error is greater than the threshold.

[0031] Step G, calculating the updated physiological parameters IS, CR, TA according to the results of the regression algorithm:

[0032] If Ĉ_3,1 exists, then

otherwise

[0033] Step H, finally, using the obtained



and

to correct the currently set IS, CR and TA with a certain correction ratio γ, wherein the range of γ values is 0 <γ< 1,





the above is used as setting parameters for high-dose injection of insulin pump from now on;

[0034] TAI and TAu are revised at the same time:

TAl := TA × τ%, where 0 <τ< 100;

TAu := TA × υ%, where 100 <u<150;

the physiological parameters IS, CR, TA, TAI and TAu are stored and updated to the cloud big data server and transferred to the mobile application and insulin pump.

[0035] Further, the cloud big data server can optimize the value of the physiological parameter GR in different time periods and the corresponding basal infusion rate BASAL by collecting real-time data obtained by users using CGMS and insulin pump in real time. The specific steps are as follows:

Step A, first, segmenting the 24 hours a day according to the basal infusion rate established by the user with reference to the doctor's recommendations and their own situation. The GR and BASAL values in each time period need to be set and calculated independently. For each time period and 2 hours before each time period, if the user eats something, and a high-dose injection accompanied with or without eating is performed, the data obtained at 2 hours after the meal or the high-dose injection needs to be excluded from this time period. The data of the time period is updated to only include the data of the longer continuous time remaining after the removal of the data at 2 hours after the meal or the high-dose injection;

Step B, collecting sample data in each valid time period:

[Tstart_n BGstart_n BGend_n BASAL_n t_n RESIDUAL_n SNR_n] and system parameters IS and TA;

The data of the same time period in the last three to six months are used for regression, and the subscript number n of historical data variables is arranged in reverse order of Tstart, that is, the closer the current historical data is, the smaller the subscript number is.

Step C, for each effective time period, considering the effectiveness of ingesting insulin, during which the body releases total glucose ΔBG into the blood through metabolism:

establishing the regression equation Δ BG = GR × t;

Step D, for each valid time period, using the regression method to calculate the updated value

of GR

where, w(T') is the time-related weight, T'n = Tcurrent - Tstart_n, Tcurrent is the current time, that is, the time of the latest historical data Tstart₁;
The closer to the nearest sample, the greater the weight;

Step E, using the obtained

to correct the currently set GR with a certain correction ratio γ

The range of γ values is 0 < γ < 1;

Step F, using the modified GR and the historical sample packet [BGstart_n t_n RESIDUAL_n] of the same time period to calculate the value

that should be set in this time period after correction according to the formula:

Step G, weighting all the calculated

in time to calculate the current BASAL correction value



where, w(T') is the time-related weight, and the closer the sample is to the current time, the greater the weight is;

Step H, if the difference between the calculated value

and the current BASAL value exceeds the threshold, using the obtained

to correct the currently set BASAL with a certain correction ratio γ:

The range of γ values is 0 < γ < 1;
BASAL is stored and updated as the setting parameter of the basal injection rate of the insulin pump, stored with the physiological parameter GR in the cloud big data server and transferred to the mobile application and the insulin pump.

[0036] Further, the cloud big data server can optimize the basal infusion rate BASAL in different time periods by collecting real-time data obtained by users using CGMS and insulin pump in real time. Other specific steps are as follows:

Step A, first, segmenting the 24 hours a day according to the basal infusion rate established by the user with reference to the doctor's recommendations and his/her own situation. The BASAL value in each time period needs to be set and calculated independently. For each time period and 2 hours before the each time period, if the user eats, and a high-dose injection accompanied with or without food is performed, the data obtained at 2 hours after the meal or high-dose injection needs to be excluded from this time period. The data in this time period is updated to include only the data of the long continuous time remaining after the removal of the data obtained at 2 hours after the eating/high-dose injection from the time period;

Step B, collecting sample data in each valid time period:

Tstart: the start time of the time period

BGstart: the average value of blood glucose in the previous short period of the time period

BGend: the average value of blood glucose in the last short period of the time period BASAL: basal infusion rate during this time period

t: duration of this time period

IS: insulin sensitivity index

TA: insulin retention time

residual insulin in the body at the beginning of the time period

Forming a sample record package for calculation

[Tstart_n BGstart_n BGend_n BASAL_n t_n RESIDUAL_n] and system parameters IS and TA;

The data of the same time period in the last three to six months are used for regression, and the subscript number n of historical data variables is arranged in reverse order of Tstart, that is, the closer the current historical data is, the smaller the subscript number.

Step C, for the n^th time period, using the historical sample packet of the n^th time period and calculating value

that should be set in this time period after correction according to the formula:

Step D, weighting all the calculated

in time to calculate the current BASAL correction value



where, w'(T') is the time-related weight, and the closer the sample is to the current time, the greater the weight is;

Step E, if the difference between the calculated value

and the current BASAL value exceeds the threshold, using the obtained

to correct the currently set BASAL with a certain correction ratio γ:

[0037] The range of γ values is 0 < γ < 1.

[0038] A cloud big data-based method for insulin pump individualized configuration optimization includes the following steps:

Step 1, obtaining, by a smart phone application, cloud big data server data when the system is started to determine whether a user is using the insulin injection system for the first time, if yes, prompting the user to set the parameters IS, CR, TA, GR, time segmentation and the basal injection rate or to continue to use a default setting, if no, downloading the updated above parameters from a cloud big data server;

Step 2, entering a high-dose injection mode if the user inputs a high-dose injection command manually, otherwise the insulin pump maintains in a basic injection mode;

Step 3, in the basic injection mode, performing an insulin injection according to the preset basic rate of the current time period, and uploading blood glucose data monitored by CGMS to the cloud server on a regular basis, checking whether there is an update of the GR and basic rate of the cloud big data server after the end of this time period or after the operation of the insulin pump, if yes, updating local storage parameters, and then repeating step 2,. if no, repeating step 2 directly;

Step 4, in the high-dose mode, the insulin pump prompting the user to manually input a carbohydrate intake CARBS and confirm a target blood glucose value to be achieved through the smart phone application, while obtaining the current blood glucose value BGcurrent measured by CGMS;

Step 5, calculating a required high-dose injection volume using the previously set or obtained parameter values:

Step 6, prompting the patient to confirm the infusion volume and high-dose infusion time, and calculating an injection stop time Tend = Tstart + T_BOLUS, wherein T_BOLUS = infusion volume/bolus-rate, bolus-rate is a user-defined high-dose infusion rate of insulin;

Step 7, uploading insulin injection information Tstart, Tend, BOLUS, CARBS and CGMS blood glucose monitoring data to the cloud big data server;

Step 8, performing the high-dose injection until the Tend is reached;

Step 9, detecting whether there are physiological parameters updated in the cloud, if yes, updating the local storage parameters, and then repeating step 2; if no, repeating step 2 directly.

[0039] The advantages of the present invention are as follows:

1. The present invention provides an individualized configuration optimization system of an insulin pump, which includes a smart phone, a cloud big data server, a real-time continuous glucose monitoring system and an insulin pump. The present invention also establishes a set of algorithms, which establishes a regression equation between the historical data of blood glucose fluctuations, carbohydrate intake and insulin injection records, calculates the user's physiological parameters related to diabetes and corrects these parameters in real time according to the updated data and recalculates the required insulin injection rate. Because the physiological characteristics and course of disease of each diabetic patient are different, and the individual difference is significant, the insulin injection mode that each person needs is also very different. The system constructed by the present invention can effectively calculate the individual optimal insulin injection volume and injection rate of each user through the historical data of blood glucose measurement of individual users stored in the cloud, so as to assist doctors and patients in making more effective individualized treatment plans for diabetes.

2. The present invention realizes that the settings of the insulin pump are automatically updated in real time according to the user's historical data, so that the user can timely understand his/her own condition, complete the adjustment of the diabetes treatment plan and provide real-time feedback information without registering for medical treatment. As a result, the present invention alleviates the psychological anxiety of patients with poor control of the disease and the life burden of the need to manage the pump settings in time, and at the same time saves the time and cost of frequent medical consultations by patients.

3. The cloud big data server of the present invention can archive the individualized parameters related to diabetes and blood glucose historical data of the user, and the historical data of insulin infusion and form an analysis report for the doctor's reference, so as to make the continued treatment plan after the patient stops the insulin pump therapy.

If yes, the user is prompted to set the parameters IS, CR, TA, GR, time segmentation and the basal injection rate or to continue to use the default setting. If no, the updated above parameters are downloaded from the cloud big data server.

Step 2, if the user inputs the high-dose injection command manually, the insulin pump enters the high-dose mode. Otherwise, the insulin pump maintains in the basic injection mode.

After the end of this time period or after the operation of the insulin pump, checking whether there is an update of the GR and basic rate of the cloud big data server. If yes, updating the local storage parameters, and then repeating step 2. If no, repeating step 2 directly.

Step 5, the required high-dose injection volume is calculated using the previously set or obtained parameter values:

Step 6, the patient is prompted to confirm the infusion volume and high-dose infusion time, and the injection stop time is calculated as Tend = Tstart + T_BOLUS, where T_BOLUS = infusion volume/bolus-rate. Bolus-rate is the user-defined high-dose insulin infusion rate.
